Benefits of Goodstart Kindergarten/Preschool programs:
The educators at Goodstart Early Learning follow an evidence-based curriculum that aligns with the Early Years Learning Framework. Informed by world-leading research, practices and techniques, the curriculum encourages the children’s natural curiosity and engages them in their learning journey.
As the children move through the different rooms in the centre, the curriculum evolves with them. The educators set goals for the children and celebrate as they reach their milestones. At every stage, the educators are tailoring the curriculum and goals to each child’s individual needs.
The curriculum involves different types of learning experiences and styles. From child-led learning to sessions guided by educators, the children participate in small and large group sessions as well as individual play. Most importantly, the children learn through play, developing social skills, confidence and independence in addition to more formal academic skills.
Play is the order of the day of Goodstart Early Learning and the programs at the centre are grounded in a play-based approach. The educators embed teaching and learning into play experiences, helping the children to make sense of the world around them. This is how the children learn about how things work and develop important foundational relationships and skills.
The primarily child-directed, play-based curriculum ensures that the children are engaged in their learning. They are encouraged to take the lead, developing their negotiation, risk taking, problem solving and social skills. The educators observe the children and help to challenge them by extending their learning and interests.
The educators recognise that every child is unique and that they bring their own needs, interests and strengths with them each day. The program is designed to be flexible to cater to these differing needs, ensuring every child has the opportunity to thrive at Goodstart.
Goodstart Early Learning uses the StoryPark app to connect with parents throughout the day. The educators upload photos and stories to the secure app, which parents can access anytime and anywhere to track their child’s progress.
The approach at the centre is very much based around partnership between families and educators. The educators work with the parents and carers to build strong relationships. They develop trust so the children can feel safe and secure while at the centre. Parents are also encouraged to share their insights and feedback with educators to add depth to the relationship.
The educators observe the children every day and tailor the program around their observations. They share these with parents, so they can feel connected to their child’s progress and also provide feedback that will further enhance their child’s learning experience.
Goodstart Early Learning employs qualified and skilled educators who are dedicated to making a difference to the children in their care. The centre employs people who are empathetic and compassionate, with a nurturing disposition and a passion for care. Working collaboratively as a team, the educators display qualities such as positivity, kindness and, most importantly, a desire to help every child thrive.
The educators hold relevant qualifications, including the Kindergarten and Preschool Program teachers who are university qualified. The educators are lifelong learners, participating in regular and ongoing professional development to enhance their skills. They are encouraged to upskill, learning about the latest research and thinking in the sector. They can then bring this knowledge back to the centre to share with their colleagues for the benefit of the children.

My 4 year old has transitioned from overseas and is thriving in Kindy at GoodStart Point Vernon. He has loved it from day 1, the Kindy programme is setting him up well for school, his educators are knowledgeable and ALL the staff are so approachable. Also fantastic facilities, modern learning spaces and super clean ✨

We’ve had a wonderful experience with this daycare centre. The educators (and all other staff I've encountered) are caring, attentive, and genuinely invested in the children’s wellbeing and development. They go above to ensure our boy feels safe and happy each day. Communication with families is consistent and transparent, and the activities provided are engaging. I also love that the centre organises different themed days, which really encourages engagement for both the children and staff and keeps things fun and exciting. The extra experiences like visits from the dentist and optical as well as special events like a magic show, make it even more enriching. On his home days, Mr T is often playing 'daycare teachers' by recreating the things he's learnt from Pt Vernon - which really warms my heart that he has clearly made some great connections here. It’s reassuring knowing our child is in such a supportive environment.

We are so happy that we found this centre. All of the educators are wonderful, Miss Helena, Kym, Nicky and Dee have all been absolutely amazing with our son. He is learning so much and actually looks forward to going. We love the variety of learning activities that they offer and the daily updates on Storypark. Tiffany the Director has been lovely to deal with and is always very helpful, we would highly recommend to anyone looking for a well run centre that values learning and genuinely cares about our little one’s.

When looking for a daycare, for my first child, I had no idea what I was looking at or for. I viewed several daycares but good start is the ONLY one that didn’t just say “good luck” and send me on my way, but they offered me a spot for my baby before she was even born taking such an INCREDIBLE weight off our shoulders as a family. Tiff was incredibly informative and they offered as many stay and plays as I needed once bub was past her immunisations. Since being in their care, she’s flourished so much and I couldn’t be happier with the environment she’s learning in whilst mum and dad are at work 🥰
